Arctic Char Recipe

Cooking Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Vegetables

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and scrub the fingerling potatoes and heirloom carrots. Cut the carrots into uniform lengths.

2. 2

   Roast the Vegetables

   Toss the fingerling potatoes and heirloom carrots in a baking dish with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until tender and golden brown.

3. 3

   Prepare the Leek and Cream Sauce

   While the vegetables are roasting, slice the leek into thin rings and rinse under cold water to remove any dirt. In a saucepan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the leek and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, then remove from heat.

4. 4

   Cook the Arctic Char

   In a large skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the Arctic Char fillets with salt and pepper. Place them skin-side down in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes, until the skin is crispy. Carefully flip the fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.

5. 5

   Serve

   Plate the roasted fingerling potatoes and heirloom carrots alongside the Arctic Char. Drizzle the leek and parsley cream sauce over the fish and serve with slices of bread.
